I don't like the thought of tobacco companies selling cannabis but if it helps with legalizing it then I guess its for the greater good. I worry that they'll spray it with nasty pesticides and chemicals as they already do with tobacco.

I agree with your point, I also didn't like the initial thought of big tobacco selling cannabis products. However, one has to imagine with their already-established factories, marketing, etc. that there is potential for these companies to make cannabis more easily obtainable with existing channels and for a cheaper price! Plus, with tobacco companies diving into the cannabis trade, one can expect their focus to shift away from dangerous tobacco and more into healthy cannabis alternatives. Might not be the worst thing for us all!
i expect it'll be a hard sell for them lol but they've got the money to market it!
True, they did the same with vaping. I hope I'd be able to grow some for personal use.
buying up vape producers like crazy
That is a legitimate concern, though the illegal stuff that is around is frequently treated with banned products. I think the real thing we all have to do is vote with our $$$. So, we need to drive the tobacco industry away from harmful pesticides and towards helpful growing techniques. Just as we need to continue the drive away from smoking tobacco and towards cannabis.
